In this episode of Lead the Room, Briony and Lyndsey unpack what it really takes to bring people together in a way that drives connection, collaboration, and performance. They explore why so many meetings feel like a waste of time, how leaders can shift their approach to make every interaction more impactful, and the key strategies for building high-performing teams that thrive. Using personal experiences and real-world leadership insights, they break down the common pitfalls that hold teams back and share practical, actionable techniques to create meetings that energize, engage, and drive results.

Key Takeaways:

• Meetings Should Create Momentum, Not Drain Energy – Too many teams get stuck in unproductive, repetitive meetings. Structure conversations in a way that drives clarity, decision-making, and action.
• Great Leaders Bring People Together with Purpose – The best teams thrive on shared goals and trust. Leaders should lead meetings that foster collaboration, accountability, and a high-performance mindset.
• High-Performing Teams Don’t Just Communicate—They Connect – True leadership is about creating an environment where people feel heard, valued, and motivated.
